| Summary: | Based on notions such as “post-memory” (LaCapra, Hirsch) or “subjective turn” (Sarlo), and on the observation of a progressive depoliticization and questioning by “the children”, of the militancy of the seventies, my analysis proposal focus on exploring wherein lies the novelty of the languages, aesthetics, themes and rhetorical procedures that the twenty-first century has found to tell the story of the recent past of violence and exile in the Southern Cone. Always beyond the univocal testimony or the reliable chronicle, both omnipresent in the last decades of the 20th century, today there is a re-politicization of the body and a dignification of the intimate sphere, of the affections and pain of each life story. I will center the analysis on the documentary film Tus padres volverán (2015), by Pablo Martínez Pessi. In this recently initiated 21st century, the film, polyphonically or chorally, in a distinctive and legitimately depoliticized way, tells that journey of “the children” in 1983, that brought forth the opening in the last period of the Uruguayan civic-military dictatorship (1973-1985), but that also had consequences in the personal sphere. |
